Trivial Trivia - taking trivia to new levels

[Laurie Verge]

Actually, I did tricky multiple choice questions that made them second guess me AND I always had one or two essays on my tests. For my remedial students, we did a lot of oral tests to overcome their weaknesses in reading. I usually had at least one class each year that were 8th or 9th graders reading on a second grade level. It's amazing how many (even good students) comprehend the information, but cannot accurately read the question or express themselves in writing.
